FAQs
What types of commercial and industrial drain cleaning services do you offer in Crossville?
We handle every aspect of large-scale drain cleaning, including main sewer line jetting, grease trap pumping, floor drain clearing, storm-drain maintenance, lift-station cleaning, and video camera inspections. Whether you operate a restaurant, factory, warehouse, or healthcare facility, our technicians are equipped to remove grease, sludge, roots, and mineral scale from lines ranging from 1" sink drains to 24" industrial sewers.
How fast can you respond to an emergency drain backup at my facility?
We provide 24/7 emergency service throughout Crossville and surrounding Cumberland County. In most cases, a fully stocked service truck can be on-site within 60–90 minutes. Our dispatch center tracks traffic patterns and uses GPS-enabled routing to send the nearest crew, so you lose minimal production time and avoid costly downtime.
What equipment and techniques do you use for industrial-grade cleaning?
Our crews arrive with high-pressure water jetters (up to 4,000 PSI), sectional and continuous-rod augers, enzymatic and biological degreasing agents, and state-of-the-art inspection cameras with on-site recording capability. For heavy industrial lines, we deploy trailer-mounted hydro-jetters that deliver 18 GPM for deep scouring. This combination lets us clear obstructions safely without damaging pipe walls or coatings.
Are your technicians certified and insured to work in commercial environments?
Yes. All field personnel hold Tennessee Master or Journeyman Plumbing licenses, are OSHA-30-hour trained, and carry confined-space entry certification when required. We maintain $5 million in liability coverage and full workers’ compensation. Our safety record exceeds industry benchmarks, and we can supply COIs and safety documentation for your facility files upon request.
What can I do to reduce future clogs in my commercial drains?
Preventive measures include installing properly sized grease traps and scheduling quarterly pump-outs, using strainers on floor drains, avoiding caustic chemical additives that cause pipe corrosion, and implementing enzyme-based maintenance treatments. We also recommend an annual camera inspection to detect early buildup so we can jet lines proactively instead of waiting for an emergency.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance contracts, and how are they priced?
Absolutely. Our Planned Service Agreements allow you to lock in discounted rates for quarterly, semi-annual, or custom schedules. Pricing is based on pipe diameter, line length, and frequency; most restaurants and light industrial facilities pay between $95 and $150 per line visit, while larger plants may choose flat monthly retainers for unlimited jetting. Each contract includes priority emergency response, digital video reports, and compliance documentation for health inspectors.
